\ TURKEY WANTS 10 MAKE PEACE WITH ALL Nn enennnnnnennn nnn — ONE OF THE LUSITANIA'’S AMERICAN VICTIMS—Carrying the body of an American passenger, covered with the Stars and Stripes, through the streets of Queens- town to the morgue | TOURISTS FLOCK TO SEE FIGHT By William G. Shepherd CHIAZZO, Switzeriand (italian Frontier), May 27.—The first great Battie of the Austro-itallan war may be fought in Trentino The Italians are pushing steadily northward into the Tyrolean Alps. They are advancing over passes and snow-covered peaks a mile high. The Austrians are fleeing, without offering serious resistance, back upon the main defenses of the Trentino army. Advices here say the Austrians are massed in gr Adige river section. Strong Italian forces have been brought up to support the raiders on the Trentino frontier, and Swiss military authorities believe the great forces may clash within a few days. Chiazzo is the busigst town of 4,000 souls in the world. Hundreds of tourists have flocked in, hoping to work their way northward along the border to see the expected battle. They remind me of the crowds along the Rio Grande, In the United States, watching the Mexicans. But, instead of El Paso policemen and soldiers from Fort Bil shoo the crowd along, stury Swiss militiamen are on the job. These soldiers have the double business of preventing belligerents from stepping on Swiss soll and keeping neutral spectators off the stage. Crowds are arriving by train, In automobiles, on bicycles and in curious old carts. Included, of course, are correspondents hot from the French and English fronts, anxious to what a new battle with dif. ferent opponents looks like. Refugees are flocking In, most of them with ta tles and narrow escapes from revengeful mobi To da’ actual battle business is poor along the Swiss frontier BRAZEN INSOLENCE!
